Gasil® 35M W

Gasil® 35M W is a synthetic amorphous silica. It is used as a general purpose silica matting agent which finds wide acceptance in the matting of inks, paints, paper coatings, matting and 'tooth' of sensitized papers, and drafting film. It is also used as an anti-plate-out additive for calendered PVC and as an ink adsorbing pigment for inkjet. Gasil® 35M W is a fine, light powder and care should be taken to avoid inhaling it. The material is neither silicotic nor acutely toxic, but safety requires sensible handling to minimise the creation of dust and build up of static electricity.
